Wza-y'ei… dho-hna… yr nhhngr

Advantages: Two great horrific stories
Disadvantages: Weak art

Alan Moore is widely regarded as the best writer of comics to have emerged since the medium started to be taken seriously (in fact, Moore's one of the reasons it's taken seriously). While Daniel Clowes is probably as good as Moore, he doesn't quite have t ...

The Bat heads to Moscow

Advantages: Combo of writing and artwork; different scenery; great concept
Disadvantages: Not long enough, can't get the depth it needs

The main difference between a written book and a comic/graphic novel is the artwork. The combination of author and artists is essential as the power of the tale comes just as much from the art as from the writing. Batman comics and graphic novels traditio ...

"When I smile, do I look like a fat Chinese man?"

Advantages: Funny, conversational writing style. Candid approach.
